Amira’s Basmati Rice is harvested from the foothills of the Himalayas, and it’s aged for up to a year before it gets processed. The rice is processed and packaged in a high-end facility that is incredibly hygienic and pure. In fact, Amira prides itself in its pure rice grains. The company also happens to offer Indian snacks, dairy products, and vegetable oils.

Amira sent me over their traditional Basmati Rice, their Smoked Basmati Rice, and their Sona Masoori Rice. All of the rice was really nicely packaged with a resealable zipper. The rice was very pretty to look at and very clean. I was absolutely blown away by the Smoked Basmati Rice; it was heavenly to smell to the point where I was sticking my nose down the bag! I’m going to cook it alongside every single piece of grilled meat I make this summer.

I put together this really simple rice pilaf recipe to make with the Amira Basmati Rice. Rice pilaf is full of delicious buttery goodness, and it makes you look fancy at your next dinner party!
